*** if I am gonna sass TGJ, it might be work spell checking my rants - my bad hahahaha***

TGJ, I understand that it might be a slow news day, and/or your recognize the fact that making grandiose statements might bring more readers to a particular post; however, the “So, in what marks one of her performances” statement is complete rubbish and unqualified. Joss Stone slays everytime she steps to the mic, and I would argue that this was a tame performance compared to her other shows. So if you honestly felt that this was one of her best performance, I would ask you to do your homework.

2.) If nothing else, I have to commend Joss Stone on being brave enough to go the indepenedent route. Joss Stone has learned, much like many artists, that in the process of creating “huge hits” with “big record companies”, you are simply a puppet, where the record company tells you what to wear, what to sing, when to sing it, and where to sing it. Yes, having a major record deal can afford you perks, but they are never free – hence the reason we have a lot of successfully broke singers. Joss Stone is a soul singer – so chances of you hearing her singing catchy pop tunes, or prancing around with background dancers in a leotard, is highly unlikely. She is true to herself and to her craft, and I honestly believe that will better serve her in the future and guarantee her longevity because her talent is not based on gimmicks but pure talent and soul.
